Cunningham's well-traveled backup, veteran Dennis Schroder, is a critical point-of-attack defender and half-court scorer — one of the best reserves in the league.

On Sunday night, the Detroit Pistons will travel to take on the Minnesota Timberwolves. Detroit is pretty comfortable as the fifth seed in the Western Conference, and the eighth-seeded Timberwolves will try to rise up in the standings.
